Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 as Yorick's Q empowered autos and ghouls deal more damage than your basic abilities.
- At level 6, you win the all-in if you dodge his cage with your E dash and use W to avoid his maiden damage.
How to Trade
- You want to trade when Yorick has no ghouls up and his Q is on cooldown after he uses it on minions.
- Use your E to dash in, land Q center hits, then W if he tries to retaliate with ghouls or cage.
Wave Control
- You should look to freeze the wave near your tower early to avoid his ghoul poke and force him to overextend for CS.
- After level 6 and first item, you can start slow pushing to build minion advantages for trades.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must not fight Yorick when he has 3-4 ghouls up as they will chunk you heavily in extended trades.
- Never use your W defensively too early - save it for when his maiden is focusing you or when trapped in his cage.
